Anybody know how to - or if it's possible - to generate a log file of what's being returned from scripts?

Looking through the current game scripts there are log instructions commented out, e.g. in Tools.bsf, or inclusion of writeLog in functions, e.g. CalculateChanceToHitAP(me, unit, aimedShot, writeLog) in FireLogic_AP.bsf. I've tried to get debugging to work but failed to get any output. Any ideas?

Cheers

You can use the Log( function (check the docs) to output script info.

You then need to set

DEBUGMODE 1

in your user.txt file, then you can use F6 to open up the script debug pane in battle. Note that the pane can be dragged around by its top edge.

Cheers
